Hi, I have known Gary Groff of Boring , Oregon for 20 years or more. He owns the 300B Derham car. I known him as a very honest individual and I am sure that there must be some mistake in dealing with him. He is a retired Oregon Air Force National Guardsman and also worked full time for the National Guard repairing jet engines. If I can be of help to the person who has a complaint, I will be happy to call Gary and try to fix the problem. On August 1, 1999, we had a discussion about his car on this list server.
